Experiments in digital image colorimetry: Smartphone determination of acetaminophen (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Acetaminophen paracetamol) can be determined colorimetrically (scheme 1) by firstly, reducing ferricyanide to ferrocyanide. This can then be converted to the highly coloured Prussian Blue, following the addition of iron(III ). Traditionally, this is...

An investigation of the biological effects of non-thermal energy technologies in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells (2025)
Thesis

With the increasing use of antimicrobial products, particularly in the healthcare sector and agri-food industry, there has been a concomitant rise in the prevalence of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) and multi-drug resistant (MDR) microorganisms. The i... Read More about An investigation of the biological effects of non-thermal energy technologies in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

taxMyPhage: Automated taxonomy of dsDNA phage genomes at the genus and species level (2025)
Journal Article

Background: Bacteriophages are classified into genera and species based on genomic similarity, a process regulated by the International Committee on the Taxonomy of Viruses. With the rapid increase in phage genomic data there is a growing need for au... Read More about taxMyPhage: Automated taxonomy of dsDNA phage genomes at the genus and species level.

Digital image colorimetry smartphone-based determination of hydrogen peroxide using titanium oxysulfate and red, green, and blue analysis (2025)
Journal Article

Previous studies have shown the possibility of colorimetrically determining hydrogen peroxide by its reaction with titanium oxysulfate, to give an orange-coloured complex (absorbance maxima = 410 nm). In this present investigation, we show the possib...

Dementia: Your questions answered and lion's mane mushrooms in the lab (BBC Inside Health) (2025)
Digital Artefact

BBC Radio 4 show examining the science behind health matters. I was interviewed as part of a show on Alzheimer's Disease, due to my work looking at therapeutic potential of Lion's Mane mushroom (a Partnership PhD with the Bristol Fungarium)

Development and validation of an LC-MS/MS intact C-peptide method and a protocol for testing dry blood spot samples for the diagnosis and management of Diabetes Mellitus (2025)
Thesis

C-peptide, which is produced in the pancreatic β-cells, is widely accepted as a surrogate marker for insulin secretion and estimation assist in the diagnosis and management of Diabetes Mellitus. Currently, C-peptide is predominantly measured by immun...
